Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

The spirit is not ambiguous, so come and taste it.Alas, Fu Wei Shangxiang! "

After reading a sacrificial text, Zhu Yujian, who already had tears in his eyes, put the sacrificial text on the torch and lit it, and threw it directly into the sea, shouting: "Lord Dragon! Is the sacrificial offering from my Ming soldiers still delicious?!"

Zheng Zhilong also followed suit: "Heroic spirit! Come back! Heroic spirit! Come back!"

In the entire fleet, except for the navy troops who were soldiers of the South China Sea Fleet under Zheng Zhilong's command, the rest were all recruited by Zhu Yujian, the late Zhu Cunshu, and Zhu Zhuohong from Shaanxi.

All the way from Shaanxi to Songjiang Mansion, training and practicing all the way.

If it is said that the ordinary people who are in the back-up and the strong have not shown much emotion, Zhu Yujian dare not say that he knows all of these soldiers who are going to fight with real swords and guns, but most of them have some impressions.

How can I not feel sad when I feed the fish like this now?

Zhu Yujian was like this, and those other feelings that were born out of fighting together on weekdays were even more painful.

Zheng Zhilong called out Heroic Spirits Return, and the other soldiers shouted together, and all of a sudden, the shouts of Heroic Spirits Returned were heard in order on the nine blessing boats.

After paying homage to the soldiers on the stern ship, the sky became completely dark.Sailing at sea, if it's just a ship, don't worry too much about how to run.

But a fleet of nine warships like this is different.

At this time, it is not the later generations. In the later generations, there are all kinds of messy means, satellites in the sky, and various positioning systems between ships, but what does Ming Dynasty have?

torches.

During the day, they can use the flags to send messages to each other, but at night, there is basically no other way except to rely on the faint light of the fire to see where they are.

And what will happen if two large-tonnage and fully loaded Fuchuan collide at night?

Anyway, Zheng Zhilong didn't dare to take the risk.

Worried about storms coming again, Zheng Zhilong also didn't dare to do things like connecting boats with iron chains, so he could only order the ships to stop and drop the ropes, and sail north after dawn.

But when the sky was getting dark, the fleet of Zheng Zhilong and his party headed north.

At sea, it is almost impossible to encounter dragons absorbing water twice in the same place, and Zheng Zhilong is well aware of this.

The most urgent task now is to run to the north as soon as possible to find a piece of land as soon as possible.

It doesn't matter whether you find a country or a small island, first find a way to replenish the fresh water and food on board.

Although the two blessing boats loaded with food, water, weapons and ammunition did not suffer much loss, the entire fleet has thousands of people.

The food brought by each blessing boat is only enough for one or two days, and if the supply boat is overstretched, it will be an extra two or three days.

When all these things are eaten and drunk, what will the thousands of people do?

The food is good, after all, it is at sea, there are plenty of fish, you can catch whatever you want, and no one comes to Zheng Zhilong and the others to collect taxes and fines.

But the fresh water is gone, but it is really gone.

If you really get to that point, don't talk about founding a country overseas, just wait for death!

Chapter 372 Damn, something's wrong

The ancestors of Chinese civilization were very smart.

For example, there is no unparalleled road in the sky, and God has the virtue of being good at life. If you lose your horse, you will know it is not a blessing.

To use the simplest two words to describe it is crisis, and danger is accompanied by opportunity.

On the second day after Zheng Zhilong and his fleet buried 420 soldiers who died under the dragon's water at sea, they mustered up their sails and headed north at dawn.

I have to get some supplies quickly, otherwise it will be very hard to die at sea.

At that time, if you can't recite it, you will come up with a lot of legends about ghost ships or treasure maps, especially the western barbarians like this tune.

The sailing time to the north was not too long, before even two hours were spent, the watchman at the top of the mast hastily raised a signal to signal the ship to stop.

Zhu Zhuohong and Zhu Cunji, who were playing chess in the cabin, didn't notice Zheng Zhilong who rushed in excitedly, but Zhu Yujian, who was flipping through "Zi Zhi Tong Jian", noticed it.

Zhu Yujian, who was quite curious, asked: "General Zheng is here at this time. Could it be that we are about to dock? But according to the schedule, we still have at least two days before we can approach Java?"

Zheng Zhilong said happily: "Your Highness is right, if calculated according to the normal schedule, we really need two or three days to reach the Java area.

But just now, the watchman found a faint shadow of an island to the west of us. "

Zhu Yujian was overjoyed, and even Zhu Zhuohong and Zhu Cunji, who were playing chess, stopped.

The big guys are not fools, as long as there is an island, regardless of its size, at least the food and water problems can be solved - no matter how small the island is, it doesn't matter if there are people or not, there will always be fresh water from the rainwater, right?There should always be plants and animals, right?

Even if there is no food, if there is water, it will save your life. Who cares if there is food? Anyway, there are so many fish in the sea, so it’s enough to get them to eat?

Overjoyed, Zhu Yujian said: "Then let's go to that island now?"

Zheng Zhilong cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness, we are indeed approaching that island now, but the island is not on my Ming's sea chart, there are no people on it, and it is not clear whether it is dangerous or not, and we need to send people first Go up and find out.

For the safety of the three Highnesses, our ship has changed from the lead ship to the stern ship. The second and third ships will go over to inquire first, and we will dock after their news is confirmed. "

Zhu Zhuohong and Zhu Cunji simply threw the chess pieces in their hands, and followed Zheng Zhilong and Zhu Yujian to the deck.

Yesterday was not a good day, a lucky boat was lost, and 420 soldiers and sailors died. It is pure nonsense to say that you don't feel sorry.

Even if you don't think about the feelings you get along with from Shaanxi to Songjiang and then to the sea, after all, this thing is a little far away from the royal family, and the 1000 people alone are enough for the three of them to feel distressed.

It's easy to talk about death pensions. After all, it's not uncommon for the emperor of the Ming Dynasty to be poor. There have been several in the 270 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, but I have never heard of a vassal king without money.

The focus is still on the 420 soldiers among the 120 people. These talents are the real key.

The three of them dare not imagine how much territory 120 trained soldiers can fight for themselves.

Your Majesty said, what caste or something is playing in India, it seems that there are elephants, anyway, they are not much better than weak chickens, as long as they don't kill their cows, they can be cows obediently Being a horse means that the habit of picking shit with the left hand and grabbing food with the right is very bad.

Forget it, there is an island now, let's see what the island is like before talking about it, as for those shit-picking elephants, let's put it aside first.

After more than an hour, the faint island also began to lift its veil little by little.

But this shit is different from the island I imagined, bastard!

No matter how an island is, shouldn't it have a beach and a natural port?

What the hell is this craggy cliff?What the hell is that oversized, uglier-than-a-monkey thing?

Zheng Zhilong simply put down the binoculars in his hand, and ordered: "Go around and see if there is any suitable place to dock in other places!"

The order was conveyed layer by layer, and the fleet composed of nine Fuchuan began to slowly turn around and turn around along the coastline.

It's just that the more it turned, the more panicked Zhu Yujian, Zheng Zhilong and the others became.
